These are the paintings that established Thiebaud's name in the USA in the early 1960s.   Thiebaud considered the everyday objects of American life to be a vital subject for contemporary art, and he saw his work as continuing the radical legacy of earlier still-life paintings by Chardin, Manet, Cezanne and others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThiebaud believed in the importance of commonplace objects that might otherwise be overlooked or considered kitsch.

Documenting each plant's particular qualities along with Latin names, Swedish common names, and dates of observation, af Klint follows the typical format of a botanical reference book, known as a Flora; however, hers is a Flora of the spirit, a mapping of the natural world in spiritual terms that would stand alongside any scientific resource. Carefully drawn and vividly colored plants, flowers, and lichen are juxtaposed with geometric forms: a blooming sunflower is echoed by three nested circles, a central dot, a solid red line, a ring of points; a white narcissus is set against a pinwheel of softened primary hues; a cluster of budding branches is accompanied by checkerboard boxes of dots and stroke.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished in conjunction with the first exhibition of the rare portfolio, \u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eHilma af Klint: What Stands Behind the Flowers\u003c\/span\u003e presents the 46 botanical drawings alongside contextualizing works, as well as translations of her notes and previously unpublished texts from her own journals.

Organized by key characteristics of dandyism that resonate across time, including presence, distinction, disguise, and respectability, this fresh interpretation of a centuries-old aesthetic draws on prominent Black voices in fashion, literature, and art—among them, Dandy Wellington, Amy Sherald, Iké Udé, and André 3000.

Exploring pairs and groups of related works, Manet and Morisot reveals that, while Morisot looked to Manet for inspiration during her early career, as Morisot’s work became more daring and garnered widespread acclaim, Manet began to follow her example, emulating her choice of subjects, her high-keyed colors, even her rapid, fluttering brushstrokes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIllustrated essays and entries challenge gendered perspectives in the Manet literature, while correspondence and a technical study invite readers into the two artists’ shared social circle and contrasting studio practices.   Published in association with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco  Exhibition Schedule:  Legion of Honor, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco (October 11, 2025–March 1, 2026)  Cleveland Museum of Art (March 29–July 5, 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eEmily Beeny, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003echief curator of the Legion of Honor and Barbara A.

Moreover, the essays and catalogue entries in this volume draw on recent technical analyses that had, for the first time, revealed the tondo’s underdrawing and pentimenti, shedding new light on Filippino’s painting techniques.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese texts are accompanied by a chronicle of the work’s rediscovery at the start of the nineteenth century and the dramatic turn of events that led to its acquisition by the Cleveland Museum of Art in 1932.   Distributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExhibition Schedule:  Cleveland Museum of Art (November 30, 2025–February 22, 2026)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eAlexander J Noelle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e 160 pages | 125 colour illustrations\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eDate published:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e March 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e English\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e9780300286472\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eProduct Dimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e30.5\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e x 22.9 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Cleveland Museum of Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56616307687802,"sku":"9780300286472","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/8302\/files\/filippino-lippi-and-rome-9780300286472-1222125515.jpg?v=1771855749"},{"product_id":"catherine-opie-to-be-seen","title":"Catherine Opie: To Be Seen","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe companion book to the National Portrait Gallery's 2026 exhibition of Catherine Opie's portraiture\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eContemporary artist Catherine Opie documents the ebb and flow of human culture.
